For ventures

IP is more than protection. It is tangible value.

We work alongside your technical team to uncover risk, create strategic IP control points and build a portfolio that supports growth and exit.

Core services

A focused route from proposition to portfolio.

Our process is interactive, technically rigorous and designed to make complex IP work transparent to the people building the venture.

Scoping

We visualize the client’s proposition as system diagrams. Together with the client, we use these to identify the critical aspects from both IP risk and potential IP creation perspectives.

IP landscape development

We collaborate closely with clients to create tailored IP landscapes. Proprietary tools make the analysis efficient, interactive and confidential.

Risk assessment

We analyze areas where competitors may hold IP related to your proposition, identify commercialization risks and categorize patents by relevance.

Ideation & IP creation

We think like inventors and coach expert teams to identify their strongest control-point IP. Our process combines problem definition, prior-art analysis, structured ideation and patent-ready documentation for seamless drafting by IP counsel.
